A new moisture calibration requires the user to select and execute ‘Initialize’ after which

the data type had been selected. The Initialize feature erases the old calibration from the

SS-LRX memory. If the initialization is not done, the new moisture points will be added to

the existing calibration causing inaccuracies. Highlight the Initialize option and press the

EXE key.

! Init MST 1 ?

Press the down arrow key to move the selection arrow to ‘YES’ and press the EXE key.

After ‘MST 1’ has been initialized, the SS-LRX returns to the calibration menu screen.

! YES

The SS-LRX is ready to be calibrated with the known samples. At the calibration menu,

highlight the ‘Generate’ and press the EXE key to display the calibration entry screen.

The ‘MST 1’ indicates the data being calibrated and the ‘New 1’ represents the point of

the calibration.

To calibrate the moisture reading the user will need to use several samples of grain, each

with a known moisture percentage. The moisture contents of these samples should be

determined using the ASAE dry down method or a calibrated moisture meter such as the

Dickey-john GAC 2000. To develop the most accurate curve inside the Seed Spector

LRX, it’s recommended that the lowest moisture sample be inputted first. The next

sample needs the highest moisture, which should represent the highest moistures

measured in the field during harvest. After these two samples have been entered, the

remaining grain samples can be input at random. A minimum of two samples is required

for a valid calibration. Three or four samples shoud be used, if a wide range of moistures

is being harvested. Adjacent samples should be no closer than 3-4% in absolute

moisture.
